Did you know that ticket sales cover only about 18% of the cost of producing arts programs and performances through the Tiffin Foundation for the Advancement of the Arts (TFAA)?
Imagine hearing only the opening notes of your favorite song before the sound suddenly fades to silence.Or stepping outside with an umbrella that’s mostly missing.
Or starting every day with just 18% battery on your phone.
That’s what it would feel like to run the arts on ticket sales alone.
Each year, TFAA brings together artists, performers, educators, and audiences through theatre productions, concerts, exhibitions, community arts programs, and educational opportunities that enrich the cultural life of our region. These experiences bring people together, spark creativity, and make our community a more vibrant place to live.
But the reality is that ticket sales and admission only cover a small portion of what it takes to produce these programs. The remaining support comes from individuals, sponsors, foundations, and community partners who believe the arts matter.
Because of supporters like you, the curtain rises.
The music plays.
Artists create.
And the community gathers to experience something meaningful together.
When you support TFAA, you help transform 18% into 100%.
Your generosity helps sustain:
Live theatre, music, and community performances
Arts education and workshops for youth and adults
Opportunities for local and regional artists
Creative spaces where art can be made, shared, and celebrated
Cultural experiences that strengthen the identity of our community
Every gift helps ensure that the arts continue to thrive—not just for today’s audience, but for the generations that follow.
Invest in passion. Sustain the arts.
Help turn 18% into 100%.
